What participants say

“This is why CC is so incredible: it allows people to learn skills and then use them in real life. CC has opened doors for me that I didn’t know existed. It is because of CC that I have become a more confident person. I believe that with some time and practice, I could be very good at anything I set my mind to”Emily Given, CC volunteer

“I am writing to express my deepest appreciation for your assistance with the…“Playgrounds are safe grounds” project …The enclosed pictures cannot convey what a great experience the kids had during the week of construction. They were able to design public art and be intimately involved in its creation. They negotiated ideas, worked together to implement them, and also helped each other resolve conflict.”Carlos Acosta, President of the McHenry County Latino Coalition, Woodstock, ILL.

“The children were very excited to make their puppets and to share their stories. It was a valuable experience for all of the children and rated at the top of their list for “favorite” activities”.Deb K., Pikes Peak Hospice

“I enjoyed working on the project with your group. The group leaders…were all very impressive and outstanding. I marvelled in their ability to work with so many different personalities at the same time keeping a steady pace on the wall mural. Again, impressive.”Kendall Merrill, community mural participant

“Dear Concrete Couch, thank you for doing the Lantern Parade. I loved making my lantern then parading around Manitou. The best part was the party at the end and dancing with my friends...”Lizzy Butts, 3rd grader

“Concrete Couch has been a little economic engine out of proportion with our budget. And along the way participants find connection, knowledge, opportunity and friendship. We are super proud of what we have created.”Steve Wood, CC Founder

"I have been working with Concrete Couch for half of my life. They came to my high school art class looking for recruits to do an installation in town. It was a huge success. It gave me a great sense of accomplishment and taught me a lot about working with any materials we can find. From used cardboard to duct tape to other scraps. The mural and sculpture programs taught me how to fabricate custom tiles, frame wood, mix concrete, cut glass, and fashion found objects into art, now seen all over the state. I would recommend this program to everyone. The classes are very educational and if you are lucky you can even get a few free slices of pizza! I'm 34 now and still use techniques CC taught me when I was 14. "Anthony Trujillo, participant
